All you Forum Folk sure had a good time typing today. It took me an hour or so just to catch up. I though spent the day @ G&J ! All day! Nobody else there! Grass is green and cut! Garbage cans emptied! Life is good! And Sunday's forcast is cool and clear! Life is great! Last race of the season! I did my regular stunts of forgetting to tighten hubs, spun a clutch w/ out tightening a starter nut, Got stuck in Cincinnati bridge traffic, Its great to be an American! EAT YOUR HEART OUT ! See you Sunday. (John C- "A" really is a ***** though)

Eric, yeah who'd a thunk it. Rain and corner workers of all things. Gotta read fast.
I envy you being at the track all day, indeed, it was perfect.
With all of the whining going on about not racing last Sunday I should be the most put out. After all, I have a fancy schmancy new L&T Mini clutch that I was planning on breaking in. (Birthday present. Yeah!) Furthermore, I was intent on spinning off the track in a classic snap oversteer maneuver to prove that I can get a certain part of my body to pucker whilst "driving like I stole it". I'm gonna have to fake the last part because I actually bought it.
I hope there's a nice cool corner worker available to help me with the yellow.....
Oh, I like A config don't get me wrong. But I like speed.

After 50, that second pucker can be pretty tough. You should all do your puckering while your young.

Okay then, I have three more years to perfect my pucker and push my pucker to the limit.
Like you said, better get it done before I ... Pucker... out!

Ray and John- 1st off, a big thanks to John H! Not many would tell someone to take their chassis for a week or 2 to see "What they think".
Margay Limo... I did get it out Thurs. I'm using extra (old) tires, Stock cast alum. wheels, No gauges & I need to add 35 or 40 lbs and set up the front properly w/ one of those Lazer thingies. Did I like it? + & - My knees are not rubbing on the steering wheel ie my legs are not as cramped. I can not hold the wheel w/ my knee anymore like I do in my mommyvan (& Energy) It does feel very foreign though and in an effort not to canabalize the Energy before the last race, I will say "I donow?"W/a 33-34" inseam I wish I had startedw/ one a ways back. I think it is kind of like a newborn baby, you are used to rolling up in a ball to sleep. It feels natural.
